  • Spotfire® Tips & Tricks : How to add TMS Layer in Spotfire Map Chart Visualization

     Share
    TMS (Tile Map Service) is the protocol used by Spotfire® to display map backgrounds as tiles. In this article, you will see an example of how you can add a TMS layer in Spotfire Map Visualization.

    TMS is an open standard documented by the Open Source Geospatial Foundation. TMS is most widely supported by web map providers. GeoAnalytics Resources - WMS and TMS Layers provide a non-exhaustive list of available TMS you can use in Spotfire 7.6 and later. 

    Open Sample dxp

    Open Sales and marketing sample dxp, which is part of your Spotfire Installation samples. These are useful examples, which demonstrate various use cases.
